Background: Physician communication during goals of care (GOC) discussions impact experiences for patients and families at end-of-life (EOL). Simulation allows training in a safe environment where feedback from simulated patients (SP), clinicians, and self-reflection can be incorporated. Objectives: To determine if multisource feedback from SP scenarios enriches feedback provided to trainees. Design: Fourth-medical students participated in two SP GOC discussions during an advanced care planning (ACP) curriculum. Students received feedback from SPs and faculty and completed a video review with self-reflection. Setting and Subjects: Forty-seven fourth-year medical students at the University of Cincinnati College of Medicine participated in the curriculum from 2019-2021. Measurements: An inductive thematic analysis of the narrative data was performed examining all sources of feedback from the SP sessions. Results: Six themes emerged from the feedback: the warning shot: words to say and why it helps; acknowledging emotion: verbal vs non-verbal responses; organization: necessity of a clear path; body language: adding to and distracting from the conversation; terminology to avoid: what jargon encompasses and how it impacts patients; and silence: perceived importance by everyone. SP feedback focused on the personal emotional impact of a student's word choice and body language. Faculty feedback focused on specific learning points through examples from the conversation and expanded to hypothetical scenarios. Student self-reflection after video review allowed students to see challenges that they did not notice while immersed in the encounter. Conclusion: Multisource feedback from simulated GOC discussions provides unique insights for students to guide their development in leading difficult conversations. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
